NORTHRIDGE, Calif. -- — Oscar da Silva scored a career-high 32 points and grabbed nine rebounds to help Stanford beat Cal State Northridge 82-71 on Tuesday.
Da Silva was 9 of 11 from the field, and 14 of 14 at the stripe to top his previous best of 27 points against Oregon in February. It was Stanford's first 30-point scorer since KZ Okpala did so against California on Feb. 3, 2019.
Da Silva, averaging 17.3 points per game, scored 17 of Stanford’s 36 first-half points.
Freshman Ziaire Williams scored all 12 of his points in the second half for Stanford (3-2). Noah Taitz also scored 12 points and Spencer Jones 10. Stanford is scheduled to open Pac-12 play against Arizona in Santa Cruz on Saturday.
